ABSTRACT:
A pattern to be examined is scanned to produce binary information of divisional regions of the pattern corresponding to the picture elements of respective scanning lines as parallel information. The parallel information regarding the shape and position of the pattern is concurrently examined under two modes. The second mode includes examination of the vertical edge and the horizontal edge, examination of the vertical and horizontal edges by compensating the deviation of mask setting in the horizontal direction, and examination of the vertical and horizontal edges by compensating the deviation of mask setting in the vertical direction.
